8mm REBAR HIGH TENSILE MILD STEEL REINFORCING BAR
Reinforcing bar, AKA Rebar, is used to help concrete stand tension force. Although the concrete is strong enough by nature to withstand compression force, it can also crack from the load-bending tensile force, and therefore it needs help resisting the tensile stress using a high-tensile substance.
The deformation shape on the steel bar, with its spacing and height, helps the concrete adhere to the steel bar and uniform a bonded structure.

Using high-quality steel with the right recommended and approved grades will ensure you install the correct steel and that your construction projects are secure, safe, and meet all legal regulations.
Our high-quality Rebar is high-tensile steel manufactured to BS4449/2005 standards. They are CARES-APPROVED products, are fully CE certified and meet the required British and European standards (BS and EN).
Large quantities of Rebar are in stock and ready for fast dispatch. If you have a bending schedule, please send it to us for our best quote.

What is High Tensile Reinforcement Bar used for?
High Tensile Reinforcement Bar, or Rebar, is used to strengthen concrete structures by resisting tensile forces. It’s commonly used in foundations, slabs, beams, and columns to prevent cracking and ensure structural integrity in construction projects.
Is T8 Rebar also known as H8?
Yes, in many trade and structural steel contexts, T8 is synonymous with H8 when referring to 8 mm high-tensile reinforcement bar.
How does Rebar improve concrete strength?
Rebar improves concrete strength by providing tensile resistance, which concrete lacks. Its ribbed design enhances bonding with concrete, creating a unified structure that can withstand load-bending forces without cracking.
Is this Rebar compliant with UK standards?
Yes, our Rebar is manufactured to BS4449/2005 standards, is CARES approved, and fully CE certified, meeting all required British and European standards (BS and EN) for safety and quality.
What are the benefits of using High Tensile Rebar?
High Tensile Rebar offers superior strength, durability, and bonding with concrete. It ensures long-lasting structural integrity, reduces the risk of cracking, and is ideal for demanding construction applications.
Can High Tensile Rebar be used in residential construction?
Absolutely. High Tensile Rebar is versatile and suitable for residential construction, including foundations, driveways, and retaining walls, providing essential reinforcement to concrete structures. Smaller diameters (e.g., 8mm, 10mm) are ideal for lighter structures, while larger sizes (e.g., 32mm, 40mm) suit heavier applications.
How do I choose the right Rebar size for my project?
The right Rebar size depends on your project’s structural requirements. Smaller diameters like 8mm or 10mm are suitable for lighter applications (e.g., residential slabs), while larger sizes like 32mm or 40mm are used for heavy-duty structures (e.g., commercial foundations). Consult your engineer or project specifications to determine the appropriate size.
How do I ensure proper installation of Rebar?
To ensure proper installation, place the Rebar at the correct depth and spacing within the concrete formwork, secure it with tying wire, and use spacers to maintain its position during the concrete pour. Always follow engineering specifications for your project.
